...that it had -ar- somewhere in it. Not at the end I think probably in the middle but not 100% on that.

Any ideas?

Captain Barnacles is a brilliant name,
Captain Barnacle is a silly misspelling,he'll spend his whole life correcting people.

How I spell it is personal choice UpTheFrigg. I'd like him to stand out and be remembered. Captain Barnacles is so ubiquitous he might as well be called Sam or James.

Every morning, at least, I hear the name Captain Barnacles.

Possibly it was Arthur but it doesn't strike me as The One I thought I'd found at the time.

Why the heck didn't I write it down? possibly because it was more than a year before I was even ttcing .

Now looking at Harper and Carson together reminded me of Caspar. That might have been it. Hmmm.

I'm impressed by how many 'ar' names you've all come up with. Thanks :).

Do you prefer Caspar or Robin?

I love that the upshot of 2 pages of -ar names is that the baby should be Robin!!

Caspar is quite nice, I think I prefer Robin though.

Ah but 3boys I might make it Rarbin. Or Robarn. Both equally good I feel.

Caspar.

However I still think Captain Barnacles is better...perhaps Kwasi,or Paso could be less common?
